Springs under turntable


I picked up a set of springs for $35 on Amazon. I intended to use them under a preamp but one thing led to another and I tried them under the turntable. Now, this is no mean feat. It’s a Garrard 401 in a 60pound 50mm slate plinth. The spring device is interesting. It’s sold under the Nobsound brand and is made up of two 45mm wide solid billets of aluminum endcaps with recesses to fit up to seven small springs. It’s very well made. You can add or remove springs depending on the weight distribution. I had to do this with a level and it only took a few minutes. They look good. I did not fit them for floor isolation as I have concrete. I played a few tracks before fitting, and played the same tracks after fitting. Improvement in bass definition, speed, air, inner detail, more space around instruments, nicer timbre and color. Pleasant surprise for little money.

Electron microscopes are electronic.At present there is no way to visualize biological molecules using only visible spectrum light microscopy, although there have lately been some tremendous advances in that science too.
Different is easy. Better? Not so much.
@neonknight Agreed. However, we're long enough in the game to know when something is an improvement and to also call out any negative considerations when they arise.
Yes Lewm, but they can not see Sh-t if the specimen is not held perfectly still, a mechanical issue.
Thanks for the amazon link. I've been looking at isolation options for my Micro Seiki BL-9. My 2nd floor listening room still has the original floors from 1929. I was also looking at trying the custom made feet from these guys,  https://www.mnpctech.com/collections/turntable-lsolation-feet
@mads1,

Looked at the link you provided. I'd stay away from rubber or sorbothane if I were you.
